|
|
I was just trying to design my application and I was thinking about usings tabs.. i think thats what they are called. I don't see anything called tabs in the different form objects. Does DFL support tabs? If so how do you use them? |

Do you mean something like the tabs at the top left of dsource.org? If so, the tab control has been planned to be the next control added to DFL.

I add my vote for implementing Tabs in DFL.
Thanks for all your efforts. |

Wow ... a recent snapshot provides the tabcontrol.
Por favor ... can you provide a source code example that uses it? (or two or three) That would be much appreciated. Perhaps a very simple one, and a more elaborate one.
Perhaps I'm not seeing one ... like I overlooked the charformat.d example for superscript and subscript. |

There's tabs.d example. |

With the tabcontrol, does it take over the entire window area? It is possible to have other widgets "co-exist" with the tab control?
I noticed that the tab.d example had one tab with "internal widgets".
I would like to have a tree-control on the left side of a "dialog", some buttons and an input field along the top, and the tabcontrol taking up the major part of the main application window in the lower-right. Is this possible, or is this more like a "PropertyPage" or "Panel"?
If possible with tabcontrol, a code example would be greatly appreciated. If not, perhaps a code example of how this would be done with panels.
Thanks again for your patience and time put into dfl. |

It's just like the other controls. It only fills the size of the parent because of the dock property. DockStyle.FILL will use the remaining area of the parent, so you would want to dock other controls first, such as with DockStyle.LEFT. Alternatively, you could manually position the controls in the form's layout event. |
